In table below, there are descriptions of an experiment on samples of three different chemical compounds. Decide whether the com

pound is ionic or molecular, if you can. If there is not enough information to decide, choose can't decide in the third column.
Compound Description Ionic or molecular?
can't decide
1 Compound 1 is a hard grayish-white solid. A small 250. mg
sample of it is put into a quartz tube and heated strongly.
It starts to melt at 1055. °C.
2 Compound 2 is a hard grayish-white solid. When tapped
gently with a small hammer, a sample fractures into
fragments and a whitish powder. The powder is soluble in
water, and when 15 g are dissolved in 100 mL of water,
the solution conducts electricity well.
3 Compound 3 is a soft waxy white solid that can be easily
shaped and molded by hand. When the flame of an ordinary
laboratory burner is held about 10 cm away from the solid,
it rapidly and extensively melts into a clear liquid.

Answer:

Compound 1- ionic solid

Compound 2- can't really decide

Compound 3- molecular solid

Explanation:

An ionic solid has a very high melting point. It is hard but not brittle. It's solution or melt but not it's solid conducts electricity. Compound 1 is an ionic solid.

We can't really decide on compound 2 since it is brittle yet it's solution conducts electricity.

Lastly, compound 3 is a molecular solid since it has a low melting point.

Which ionic compound would you expect to have the highest melting point? a. Al-N b. Fe-O C. W-C
Elza [17]

Answer:

b. Fe-O

Explanation:

A way to predict melting points for ionic compounds is with electronegativity.

Electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

The most electronegativity difference (E.D.), the highest melting point, thus:

E.D. Al-N = 3,0 - 1,6 = <em>1,4</em>

E.D. Fe-O = 3,5 - 1,8 = <em>1,7</em>

E.D. W-C = 2,5 - 1,7 = <em>0,8</em>

The most electronegativity difference is from Fe-O, thus, this ionic compound will have the highest melting point.

I hope it helps!
